Source? Communism has never been implemented, and the systems designed to transition to communism, e.g. the USSR, we’re actually pretty successful in decreasing hunger. People starve under capitalism.
Not any more than it is under capitalism. People starve under that system too. Meanwhile you have Republicans crying that a state might pay $1.50 a day to feed a needy kid lunch at school. Why is that even necessary then?
Do I have a citation that starvation exists in capitalist countries as well? I don’t think comparing the rest of the world to the US, which is extraordinarily well-positioned economically for a variety of reasons, makes much sense. Even so, we have 15-30 million people in the US who experience occasional or chronic food insecurity.
As far as Cuba, who knows how they would have done without decades of a US trade embargo. Venezuela has suffered under looting and misrule by authoritarian dictators, not communism.
It’s an inherent flaw in communism. People starve under the system.

Yes, it has. Venezuela, Cuba, the soviet block.
Starvation was common under the Soviets.

Talk to anyone who survived communism. It is a common theme. That is why one of my friends defected. He came to America and saw a grocery store.

My friends who survived communism would disagree with you. Do you have a cite to show otherwise?
Looking at Venezuela, I have not seen anything like that here, have you? or Cuba? When I was in Cuba, malnutrition was common.

Cuba is only embargoed from us. Pretty much everyone else in the world trades with them.
Authoritarian dictators. Communism. It is all the same thing.
Ha ha, no. If that’s the angle you’re coming from that explains a lot.
Name one that hasn’t been the same.
